Identification and characterization of the elusive protein backbone of the immuno-dominant and species-specific Em2(G11) metacestode antigen of Echinococcus multilocularis [PDF]
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by Echinococcus multilocularis, is a severe zoonotic disease in humans. One of the major metacestode antigens of E. multilocularis is the Em2 or Em2(G11) native purified antigen.

Identification of the key amino acid mutations in the PB2 and PA proteins of classical swine H1N1 influenza A virus in mammalian adaptation [PDF]
The classical swine (CS) H1N1 influenza virus, first isolated in 1930, is highly homologous to the 1918 Spanish influenza virus. CS H1N1 virus, which crossed the interspecies barrier to infect humans has become the dominantly prevalent strain in China’s ...

Characterization of 2S albumin allergenic proteins for anaphylaxis in common buckwheat
2S albumin (2SA) is responsible for anaphylaxis following consumption of buckwheat in allergic individuals. To reduce allergen incidents, characterization of 2SA polypeptides is prerequisite, thus was analyzed in this study. Of the five 2S albumin genes (

There are four dynamically and functionally distinct populations of E-cadherin in cell junctions
E-cadherin is a trans-membrane tumor suppressor responsible for epithelial cell adhesion. E-cadherin forms adhesive clusters through combined extra-cellular cis- and trans-interactions and intracellular interaction with the actin cytoskeleton.
